Most of it features teenage characters mutually falling in love for the first time, there's a sense of exclusivity, being right for eachother, and overcoming adversity because you have someone that you care about and they do the same. The bleaker things get, the more elevating and precious that kind of connection is in comparison. Your life might be mundane, or you might be suffering, but there's still something real out there, it's not over.
In many ways that kind of a standard scenario is the polar opposite of real life/the blackpill. Not many people stick with their first love, degeneracy is the norm and relationships don't tend to be that meaningful, if you're reading this no girl would be too saddened if you died in a ditch somewhere, and for 25+ cels it's over, especially since it never even began.
Stuff like Toradora, Kimi no Na wa, Seishun Buta Yaro, Steins;Gate, etc., sent me into post-anime depression, it only got worse each time. At this point it's more of a torture than cope since I no longer identify with the generic MC at all.
